Emmerdale's Lucy promises big 'pay-off' for Carl
Emmerdale's Chas Dingle will get her revenge on cheating boyfriend Carl King with a 'big pay-off', actress Lucy Pargeter says. The firebrand rumbles the affair between Carl (Tom Lister) and Eve Jenson (Suzanne Shaw) this week after discovering the blonde's bra in her house. But instead of giving the love cheats what for, Chas keeps quiet about it and instead carries out little acts of revenge, such as putting toffee in Eve's hat on Bonfire Night. In an interview with Emmerdale's official website, Lucy teased: "Revenge is going to be long and very sweet. There are a lot of things that will lead up to the ultimate pay off. Little digs, childish digs really, and then the big one comes and the big idea is formed. "Bless him and bless her, but there's going to be a big pay-off soon." Suzanne has previously revealed that Eve will get her comeuppance, and promised that a 'juicy' plot development at Christmas.
